I have wrapped my own car in Avery Magnetic Burst (gloss metallic). It was the first wrap I ever did and it turned out great! I only got lifting afterwards on the first panel I did. The rest stayed looking great. That one lifting edge was to blame on me tough, not on the film. I still had to get a feel for wrapping. Afterwards I had many people asking me if I had my car repainted and "That's a great colour". It kind of had them silent for a bit when I told them it's wrap and that I did it myself. I watched a lot of your videos as training and I think that greatly helped me getting the result that I got. I want to thank you for the helpful videos and I wish you a great Christmas!

im honestly impressed with vvivid. it doesnt have the smoothest finish when you look up close but it takes a lot of abuse if you mess up just lift and try again. you will end up with dust by doing that but at least you dont have to scrap a piece

I’ve done a few wraps on bikes and the first and best wrap I did was a carbon fiber Avery and it came out flawless, and never lifted. Had it on for about a year and decided to buy one of those Chinese rolls of 4d carbon fiber, didn’t look as good as the 2d Avery and it had all sorts of issues, started lifting and cracking after a week or two.

@jefish3 жыл бұрын
Bought a roll of Avery SW900, can't say I'm happy with it. After application, any decent pressure on the surface will cause the air channel grid pattern to come through. I wrapped an airplane wing skin, no stretch in the vinyl, and set a 5lb counterweight on one end of the wing for riveting. I found later that the shape of the weight is now a seemingly permanent feature embedded in the wrap surface. The pattern also appears when applying heat to rub out any air bubbles. The air channel idea is great on paper, but not in reality.
@spirkospirko57293 жыл бұрын
Sounds like you didn't post heat enough. Post heating, among other things, essentially melts the adhesive so you don't have that grid pattern

Please, do a video on wrapping a guitar body (preferably a P bass, removable neck type, 4 screw bolt up). I don't think it would take much wrap for you. Maybe a friend with a bass that's wanting something to look different/new ? Perhaps offcuts from a car job ? I've been wrapping pickguards, access covers & the like. I figured if I'm using car paints for the body why not wrap it (I don't buy into the changing the tonal qualities bullshit). And here's the but, I am totally unsure how to do the horns on a typical shape, and how to seamlessly join the front & the back. There are guitar skins companies. But they are quite expensive, & I find their online tutorials quite confusing. Cheers Shaun.

A mil and a micron are not the same. You are correct that a "mil' is a thousandth of an inch. Unfortunately, many people these days use "mil" as short for millimetre (especially bicycle enthusiasts) so the short-form "mil" has become ambiguous. A micron is a millionth of a meter.

So I was going cut out the camo patterns on the wrap. So it will be white, lime green, army green, dark grey and dark brown for the colors. Should i get gloss, matte or flat? The truck is super white gloss.
